9/24, Why you should be a socialist featuring Danny Katch

September 24, 7pm

135 Shillman Hall

Northeastern University

The racism of police violence. Climate change. Sexism and homophobia. The injustices of American society stand exposed for everyone to see. Yet, the many apologists for capitalism claim that whatever its defects, there is no alternative to a system that puts corporate greed ahead of human need. We disagree! Come to this meeting to discuss what socialism is and how you can get involved today in the struggle to change the world!

Featured speaker:

Danny Katch is an activist and humorist often accused of not knowing the difference. He writes a regular column for SocialistWorker.org and his articles have appeared in Truth-Out, ZNet, and the New York Daily News. He is the author of the recently published book, Socialism...Seriously: A Brief Guide to Human Liberation, America's Got Democracy! The Making of the World's Longest Running Reality Show and has contributed to Occupying Wall Street: The Inside Story of an Action that Changed America and 101 Changemakers: Rebels and Radicals Who Changed US History. Yes, he knows he has a problem with overly long titles and he's working on it.
